Long Brick Tunnel (for Pearl St. Mall)

in vapid hands she rung her toiling back
back familiar and I covered under shades 
turned down that cool voicing that splayed
my thoughts along cave walls
or a long brick tunnel. 

Those tendrils 
he calls fingers
rummaging around in the burned haywire
singe-ing up the end of that cylinder, that
lightning twice afraid and too cylindrical 
to hit. Arounding coil splat spew light
through a paper cut cardinally burned, 
burned on the fringe, 
burned out and inch left and spring
up into that long brick tunnel. 

This dance on leveling dimensions, 
this sonneto, this doesn't leaving limps on 
toward that burned be    on     ends and 
jump, lick latex to spend eternal odds 
roving over new corners in the same
summer-old long brick tunnel.
